Scored 19 on us in November. Big guard!

The name "Nutter" alone will be worth it's weight in gold come gameday threads.

Would we have to find another transfer named "Butter" to join him?

 

[JonathanW]

He looks more like a forward, and is listed as such on ESPN. Only 9-27 from 3 on season.

Just going on what the post says.

 

[trueblujr2]

Didn't a kid from Ga St. do a video after our game complimenting UK and talking about the atmosphere being something like he had never experienced before?

Efrem "Butta" Johnson - Men's Basketball - UAB Athletics

Efrem "Butta" Johnson (8) Guard - Sophomore Season (2023-24) Appeared in 34 games while making 25 starts and playing 31 minutes per game. Averaged 11.2 point...

As close as I could find. Efram "Butta" Johnson from UAB. Not the UAB player we all want though!

Pick him up, lol!

Maybe add a 3rd guy nicknamed "Smooth".
So we could go with Nutter Butta, or with Smooth (as) Butta.

Well, we know he shoots well in Rupp.

Jimmy Dykes would have a field day:
“Zarique Nutter is a dadgum good Nascar Cutter”

Internet champion today sir

He looks more like a forward, and is listed as such on ESPN. Only 9-27 from 3 on season.

And of course against us he most likely had 3-4 of those makes from 3.

 

[JimboBBN]

Probably not someone we pursue if the information is correct and he’s 33 percent on only 27 attempts.

 

[Rockford]

1-2 actually

 

[BlueBomb]

I doubt Pope will take a perimeter play that can't shoot the three.

 

[drew_ukfan]

Nutter? I barely know her!

 

[Rockford]

Nutter? I barely know her!

 

[Catzman]

33% from 3 and 59% from the FT line? Not my favorite stats to see. I wonder if better offense could see his 3 point shooting rise, like Butler, but those free throws speak to a form issue.

 

[tapemaster8]

He looks more like a forward, and is listed as such on ESPN. Only 9-27 from 3 on season.

Which equals 50% from two. Not bad.

 

[oldsports_]

Horrible prospect, damn son.

 

[blue cincy]

Fluffer. Fluffer to Nutter.

 

[JonathanW]

Our team makes 56% of our 2's, vs better competition/defenders.
Oh, you mean 33% from 3 is equivalent to 50% from 2. While true, 1) see above statement, and 2) 33% from 3 is not considered good, I would say it takes 35% from 3 to be considered "decent", 37.5% to be "above average", and 40% to be "good".

Wouldn't be the first player Kentucky has poached from Georgia St. This would have to work better than the Ryan Harrow experiment.
